PLEEAAASE I NED HELP

9

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for this problem to have more than one solution, one will have to make it such that the two sides are equal. Call the unknown quantity "x", and solve this equation like a literal equation;

5u + 3(4u - 6) = -3u - 27 + 20u + x

Simplify, (distribute and combine like terms);

5u + 12u - 18 = 17u - 27 + x

17u - 18 = 17u - 27 + x

Inverse operations;

17u - 18 = 17u - 27 + x

-17u         - 17u

-18 = -27 + x

+27   + 27

9 = x

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
